Window treatments are an essential element of interior decor and design. Being seemingly a simple element, drapery completely changes the feel of the room. In order to create an elegant and sophisticated design, pay special attention to fabric, placement and functionality, regardless of design style. It is important to install curtain rods closely to the ceiling to build a higher vertical line and thus make the window seem taller and bigger letting more light in. For larger windows, it’s preferable to use a heavier fabric, to make sure that drapes will keep the shape and ripple in a beautiful pleat or wave. If you want to let more light in and visually broaden the windows, hang drapes on tracks that are positioned beyond the width of window, to fully expose the glass area. If you want to block out the daylight, you might need to combine drapes with shades
